Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.72%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Multiple interpretation error in unspecified versions of AntiVir Antivirus allows remote attackers to bypass virus detection via a malicious executable in a specially crafted RAR file with malformed central and local headers, which can still be opened by products such as Winrar and PowerZip, even though they are rejected as corrupted by Winzip and BitZipper.
